Jorge Martin: “Now, surely, Ducati are biting their nails…”
🐼Champion Jorge Martin will be Ducati's 🅰big opponent in 2025

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin has suggested that Ducati will be nervous as 🅠he steps onto a rival bike in 2025.
Martin has alꦛready tested the Aprilia, who he will join next season, at the pos𒀰tseason Barcelona test.
He was effectively forced to exit Ducati when they overlooked him in favour of Marc Marquez for their 2025 official ga𝓰rage, alongside Pecco Bagnaia.
Ma൲rtin overcame that snub to win the MotoGP championsh൲ip and could now take the #1 plate to Ducati’s Italian rivals.
“Honestly, for me, the key point of the championship was not there,” he told about Ducati’s decision to ignore him for their factoꦐry team.
“🐼Yes, obviously, for the press, for the contractual issue, there was a mess and it was a before and after in my history with Ducati, that's clea๊r.
“But, for me, 🌌on a sporting level, a turning point could have been Germany, when I fell leading with a lot of advantage.
“I think💮 that might be the turning point for me to make the switch and say, 'So far, I'm not going to fail anymore.' T🅺hat did motivate me.
“Whether they catchꦜ me or not, you can't control it.
“In the end, I saw that I didn't have to prove an♎ything and I gave my one hundred percent, just as I had done until that moment and I managed to take this title.”
Martin r🥂eferences Ducati: “Now, surely, they are biting their nails, but, in the end, it is not with me that you have to talk about it…”
Martin ওinsists his focus narrowed after Ducati’s bi🧸g call to pick Marquez for 2025.
That decision♑ also🐻 coincided with Martin’s team, Pramac, also opting to leave Ducati and become a Yamaha satellite team next year.
“I𓆉t made us unite more,” Martin said abo🌠ut his own squad.
“Also, I took that opportunity to make the team a unit, to bring them all together and tell theꦉm: 'Guys, this has happened...'
“This year, in the end, I have also taken things more as 𓄧an opportunity and not as a threat.
“You say to yourself: 'Okay, it is what it is, what opportunity do we have ahead of us? Well, a satellite team of 10-12 guys can beat a factory o꧑f 200. So let's work, no one is going to give us anything and we're g🍸oing for it'.
“And, in the end, thanks to thཧat, surely, I was able toꦏ be world champion.”
Martin i🍰s widely tipped to face a tough title defence in 2025 when he rides for the factory Aprilia team🅰.
Aprilia did enable Maverick Vinales to become the only non-Ducati grand prix win♋ner of thisꦚ season.
But 💟overall the factory-spec Ducati is by far MotoGP’s best bike, and it will be in Bagnaia’s and Marquez’s hands next year.
